Flay the Obscene - DeathmatcH

About This File

/story The first and only DM level in my series of Flay The Obscene maps containing 3 SP levels and now this one Dm level.

This level uses exactly the same textures and flats as the other maps. Namely brick as the most used, wood and metal.

I'm not the best DM designer, and this is my second DM level in a 3 year "career" as a level designer. All of my other levels are SP and somewhat good with great gameplay and beautiful architecture. So when it came to making a good DM gameplay, I had to start from scratch; I couldn't rely on my experience. My plan was to make a level with no trigger effects whatsoever, the only one being the exit switch. This means that there's nothing like a door or lift to slow you down. Almost every room is connected to each other. Due to the size of the map, hunting is inevitable unless you're 6+ players. Quake3Arena influenced me a little bit.

Weapons: SS Chaingun Rocket

Items 1 Green armor 1 Soulsphere Potions Helmets

I did most of the testing with zDoom 1.22 bots which worked OK, altough they had a tendency to keep their fights in the big center area. Also they couldn't figure out how to reach the Rocket launcher.

I played with items respawn, falling damage, allow jump, weapons stay which worked OK for me. I don't know how exactly how the level will work with the old DM rules.

      I genuinely enjoyed this mod with its level design and music. It was challenging and interesting and it kept me playing a while after beating it to try to find anything. though I would say it was slightly repetitive and overwhelming with enemies at some moments.

      Writing a review for Darkening 2 is tough. It's a beloved megawad, and for good reason. As many other reviewers have said, it is historically a very important project.   It was an important megawad for me personally. I fell in love with the first level in particular. The music, the realistic architecture, so reminiscent of the video games of the 90s... It all left a lasting impression. And it was one of the most beautiful wads I've seen at the time.   But I rarely played anyt

      A competently made map, for sure, but fun? It's way too long and repetitive, with same-y combat & ambush scenarios used again and again, and with way too much enemies, and not that much of a challenge, even for me who isn't exactly fond of "SUPER HARD WAD #9263!!!!11!. You can cut the whole thing in half, and then cut THAT half in half, and it would be a better map. Is it bad? No, just a little bit above average, mostly because it drags a bit too long.

      Generally good map design, but the difficulty as is the case with pwads tends to be uneven even on HMP, especially when you mix them with what slaughtermaps tend to be (monster spam). Too many parts where, after pressing a switch, you'll spend some time killing enemies only to realise the map maker tried to get cute and spawned a bunch of hidden archviles somewhere to start reviving everyone while you were busy wasting ammo. This is especially unfun in parts with very little cover where you'll b

      I like the part where I pay for the numerous murders I committed by getting beaten up by either a Mancubus or an Arachnotron, it changed my outlook on Monster Priority. Thank you "Problematic" Revenant #7, I have yet to find a way to repay him.
